getCodecByName

Find the relevant compression codec for the codec's canonical class name
or by codec alias.

Codec aliases are case insensitive.

The code alias is the short class name (without the package name).
If the short class name ends with 'Codec', then there are two aliases for
the codec, the complete short class name and the short class name without
the 'Codec' ending. For example for the 'GzipCodec' codec class name the
alias are 'gzip' and 'gzipcodec'.
